Spurgeon: the spirit of prayer

Monday, December 26, 2022
    Feast of Stephen, Deacon, First Martyr
Meditation:
Give ear to my words,
    O LORD, consider my sighing.
    —Psalm 5:1 (NIV)
Quotation:
    Let us cultivate the spirit of prayer which is even better than the habit of prayer. There may be seeming prayer where there is little devotion. We should begin to pray before we kneel down, and we should not cease when we rise up.
    ... Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834-1892), The Treasury of David, v. I, New York: Funk & Wagnalls, 1883, p. 49 (see the book)
    See also Ps. 5:1; 17:1; Rom. 8:26; 1 Thess. 5:17; 1 John 5:14-15
Quiet time reflection:
    Lord, maintain prayer in my heart. CQOD    Blog    email    RSS
